This document describes a method for the rapid, sensitive and reproducible detection of seven common drugs of abuse using the Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS.
This document presents a validated analytical method for the determination of opiates and other drugs of abuse. The study utilizes the Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS system equipped with an ESI source to separate, detect, identify, and quantify seven specific analytes: codeine, oxycodone, hydrocodone, meperidine, cocaine, methadone, and THC.
The method analyzes codeine, oxycodone, hydrocodone, meperidine, cocaine, methadone, and THC.
Calibration curves were found to be linear from 5 to 500 ppb.
